Extra HTML attributes

[Andy Laws]

Dear All

Recently i posted  an item on why the following line of code was bad practice

 

 

<Select  id="660fb69a3e844a8bb89065b824a9b6d6" name="660fb69a3e844a8bb89065b824a9b6d6" agdFormPrompt="Workers" agdFormValidator="M-CHL">

 

However i have lost the responses, i would be very greatfull if people could give the opinion on why this is bad practice,

 

And what the resutls would be with a screen reader

 

also Mozzila refuses to process the agdFormPrompt and agdFormValidator tags

 

Many Regards and thank you in advance

 

this has got very serious as i have lost my job because my boss did not belive what i was telling him

Hello Andy,

If you use the W3C html validator you can be self sufficient on finding this out yourself: http://validator.w3.org/

The results are:

1. Value of attribute "id" invalid: "6" cannot start an id, must be letter
   
2. Attribute "agdFormPrompt" is not a valid attribute
3. Attribute "agdFormValidator" is not a valid attribute

All the best.

An answer from two years ago Andy.

Sorry to hear that Andy, the messenger got shot and your contract
terminated.
Working for yourself you might be freerer to explore. I have a horrid
day job to support having freedom of expression at night.
You want whatever html or css or javascript you can do, anything you
want.Start your own domain name and explore Andy.

Horrid code below is my humble opinion.
What is agdFormPrompt and agdFormValidator tags and why would you need
them. Writing pages that don't work with  one user agent Mozilla any
Standards compliance alternatives to scripting, is it javascript? what
is agdFormPrompt and agdFormValidator tags. I would probably have
archived replies to this question but so much time.

Please pardon my optimism I am only free at night because I have a
horrid day job.
They will be a "target" for someone somewhere, if I may make a pun on
the USA Target case.

My position is different. I would (and have) documented what the
contract
(including published policies such as accessibility and privacy state)
and
legal requirements were, followed up with how what the client wants
fails to
those requirements. Then if the client is not willing to implement those
requirements we terminate the contract.

Hi,

As a person with a visual impairment, I need to independently test and repair PDF accessibility issues. Is there a tool or set of tools that will allow me to do this?

 

Thanks.
